Thu, 26 Jul 2012 07:56:04 +0000http://thehopeinside.wordpress.com/?p=250#comment-97I know all too well the horrible halls of nursing homes. Hospital beds and transfers back and forth to the nursing home again. My mom lived in one for so long, when my dad could no longer care for her. My guilt is endless. Should I have quit my job? Lived with her to care for her? And my nana..wonderful nana… Alzheimer’s took her over as well. I am so so sorry to see your pain through your step dads suffering. I wish I could help somehow. I am here for you, though. I understand. I hear you. It sucks, that’s all I can say. The memories will be good ones, though. I just somehow know.

I was just emailing e.e. and I mentioned the nostalgia I was feeling for those heady days of 5 or 6 years ago… in any event she kindly pointed me in this direction in order that we could reconnect in a small way.

As before, you articulate your thoughts and feelings quite beautifully. It would be lovely to hear from you and to catch up properly.

Sun, 27 Mar 2011 17:30:06 +0000http://thehopeinside.wordpress.com/2011/03/25/inside-out/#comment-89Loved the picture of you and your brother with your Dad, from years past. Keep those memories with you and hold them in your heart.
Regarding second chances, I do not know the magic number. It seems that the closer someone is to you, or the more “Permanent” the relationship, the more chances you hand out, just because it is so hard to separate yourself from the person. It becomes an ongoing battle in your mind and heart as to how much harder it would be (on yourself or others) to end the relationship, rather than to continue it. It doesn’t hurt to pray for guidence. I hope you find the answer, and an end the pain.

Fri, 25 Mar 2011 01:49:08 +0000http://thehopeinside.wordpress.com/?p=208#comment-88e.e. I am so sorry about your dad…I remember how close you were especially after all you’ve been through with your mom. I wish I could say it gets easier but some days when it seems easier I then realize I was just distracted and the pain and ache was masked underneath it all. I suppose instead of healing I believe you learn to go on with a piece of you missing. I’m certain that one day that piece will come back to me a life beyond this one…or at least I hope it does.

Sun, 27 Feb 2011 08:28:32 +0000http://thehopeinside.wordpress.com/?p=195#comment-85I love this post….

It’s e.e.
Its been a long time, and I just found your new place. Its 3 am, here in the Boston area.
It’s snowing, again.
A silent fallng of beautiful white particles so heavy in my heart right now I feel it should crush New England.
I haven’t posted in years also… I went to your old place and found your note … thank you.
I can’t time these words… but here goes. My dad passed away too. About 18 days ago.
I know there is nothing I can write to heal you. Say. Do.
Nothing can. I hate the world without him.
I know you feel the same. I hate the new normal.
Its never going to be normal for me.
Its the puzzle piece that never fits, like you wrote.
Will we be able to reconnect them in heaven?
…
…
I send love.
The only thing I have power to do.
